FINLAND 2013 - Krista Siegfrids - Marry Me

Interview Krista Siegfrids - Eurovision in concert

 

[alca]

I love her!

 

[Jounah]

Well she's definitely not a wallflower!

 

[hijirio]

I fell for her once again! *_*

 

[Waterfall]

I do hope she'll prove me wrong in Malmo and show me that this isn't just queerbaiting. If you make it out to be promoting LGBT rights only in the non-mainstream events hardly anyone watches, and then it suddenly erases any reference to that at the final, and it's hetero in the official video...yeah.

In more positive news she performed the song strongly and has a great stage presence and energy. One to watch.

 

[cegs5]

I love the way she keep promoting. By far she has done a much better job than previous Finns entries.

She's not promoting anything but her song. If she wants to kiss a girl on stage is up to her, I wouldn't be upset If she doesn't do it in Malmö, why she should do it?
She openly agree with gay marriage in interviews in Finnish media, during the debate about that subject in the Parliament, and she has visited gay clubs by herself sometimes, not in a promoting campaign. imo It's more genuine to do it in that way, after all, how many times we have seen "gay friendly" stages in ESC and after that they haven't done anything about promoting LGBT rights? I found it hypocritical!

 

[alca]

^ But even if she wants to do it on stage, will EBU allow it? Wasn't that an issue back in 2003? They said that if t.A.T.u. try to kiss each other they will stop the broadcast or something!

Yes but that was 10 years ago.

 

[alca]

Yes but that was 10 years ago.

Hm... Well it will be quite weird if they allow her to kiss a girl on stage while the entire concept of this year's edition reminds us of the '90s.

I found it hypocritical!

I just feel like it'd be queerbaiting and sucking up for the gay vote behind doors but making it heterotastic for the mainstream audience. But I might just feel like it's attention seeking because of the recent reports of her making noise and attention seeking when others are getting interviewed. It's just my personal look on it, that kind of character tends to annoy me after a bit, but of course she can do what she wants and I'll be happy for her if she does well.

LGBT situation has gotten worse since then.

Interview Krista Siegfrids - Eurovision in concert

2 more interviews:

Krista leaves more an impression off stage than on stage. Her interviews are the funniest part of this Amsterdam concert.

 

[PeterLPZ]

I like this song more and more.

 

[VikingTiger]

I think Finland can get one of their best placings in a long time (well, since Lordi that is).
I think this will come as a fresh breath to many in this years ESC.
Something not very serious, happy, simple, rather charming, quite modern (reminding of Kate Perry that has been quite successful) - and yet better performed than another "happy tune" of 2013; Serbia.
I think both the juries and the televoters will give Finland a relatively warm welcome. I think Finland will be in the final - and might even get close to top 10.

I'm not a big fan of this entry but I like Krista so much, she's really taking care of his responsability to represent a country and to take a chance to promote herself.
By far she has done a much better work than the previous ones. Finland has been in the bottom many times and people don't expect a good placing, but a good performance to make us proud it's fair enough.

 

[Franco]

Another crazy interview with Krista in Amsterdam.

 

[kamc]

She should not be allowed to sing the "skipping dinner to get thinner" line.
It is sending out a terrible message to younger eurovision fans.

Don't they have families who learn them some basic things about life?They expect 3 seconds of a song to make their minds?
